Welcome DannieRay BTW These mulitple posts happen it's not just you.

Welcome DannieRay. You have certainly made an impression!,
I occasionally buy Woman&Home and have Saga delivered monthly - I got a subscription as a joke for late DH's 50th birthday and some 20 years on it is still being delivered so it's the best £50 ever spent....

Thank you for your welcome Nelliemoser and Marmight, I didn't read the instructions first - I have now. Here goes..............!

I too have a dislike of celebrity focused magazines etc so I can thoroughly recommend Landscape. It has a good mix of recipes, crafts and short interesting articles and photographs. It is not heavy reading , not puerile either so easy reading. Not oriented towards either sex, so my husband and I both get something out of it. P.S I don't work for the company !

I found - "TOP SANTE" - different and interesting but unfortunately had difficulty finding it in the shops regularly, so I ended up subscribing to it. Now I am guaranteed my copy every month. Why don't you give it a try?

I read emagazines on my iPad free from the library. If you go to the library website you can put in your lib card info and set up a password then look at the emagazines on offer, Wales has a huge range on offer including artist and illustrator which saves me a lot of money each year but magazines for all interests, Country living, Prima, Good housekeeping, oh too many to mention. You can sign them out but keep them forever and can recall them when ever you want, look at back copies, get reminders when the new issue is available, even the radio times is there. If you prefer a print copy it is a good way to try a magazine before you take out a subscription. Saves me a fortune!

Prima and Essentials. Have it bought for me for Christmas pressie.

I am also 64 (just!) and I love Prima and Essentials. They have a good mix of everything and are cheaper than Good Housekeeping and Woman and Home which are now over £4.

I long ago stopped buying womens magazines as I prefer to spend the money on a book. I do suscribe to Current Archaeology and Current World Archaeology which are very interesting.

I can't remember when I last bought a women's magazine! I don't miss them at all. Now I get the U3A magazine and that's my lot.

I don't buy magazines anymore I regard them as a waste of money, very little content and a load of adverts. However, I do enjoy a session with a few when I visit the hairdressers.
